Complete mitochondrial genome of the North American Rhus gall aphid Melaphis rhois (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae).

ABSTRACT: We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) for the North American Rhus gall aphid species Melaphis rhois. The mitogenome is 15,436?bp in length with a high A?+?T content of 82.7%, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region. Its gene order is identical to that of the eastern Asian species Schlechtendalia chinensis. All protein-coding genes start with a typical ATN codon and terminate with a TAA codon except COI and ND4 by a single T residue. All the tRNAs except tRNA^Cys formed a clover-leaf secondary structure. The mitogenome phylogeny of Aphididae suggests that M. rhois is most closely related to the eastern Asian Rhus gall aphid S. chinensis with the present sampling scheme.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Rhus gall aphid Meitanaphis microgallis (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae).

Project description:We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of the Chinese Rhus gall aphid Meitanaphis microgallis (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae: Fordini) by the genome skimming method on an Illunima platform. The assembled mitogenome is 16,191?bp in length with a very high A?+?T content of 84.3%. This genome consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a control region. All the protein-coding genes have a typical ATN initiation codon and TAA termination codon except COX1 and ND4 with a single T as stop codon. The tRNAs ranged in size from 59 to 77?bp and formed a clover-leaf secondary structure except tRNA-Ser (AGN). We constructed the phylogenetic relationship of Fordini aphids including all the Rhus gall aphids, and the ML tree showed that M. microgallis grouped with M. elongallis as its sister group.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the strawberry aphid Chaetosiphon fragaefolii Cockerell, 1901 (Hemiptera: Aphididae) from California, USA.

Project description:The aphid Chaetosiphon fragaefolii Cockerell, 1901 is an agricultural pest and known vector of strawberry viruses. To better understand its biology and systematics, we performed a genomic analysis on C. fragaefolii collected from Quinalt strawberry plants from Pacific Grove, Monterey county, California, USA using Oxford Nanopore and Illumina sequencing. The resulting data were used to assemble the aphids complete mitogenome. The mitogenome of C. fragaefolii is 16,108 bp in length and contains 2 rRNA, 13 protein-coding, and 22 tRNA genes (GenBank accession number LC590896). The mitogenome is similar in content and organization to other Aphididae. Phylogenetic analysis of the C. fragaefolii mitogenome resolved it in a fully supported clade in the tribe Macrosiphini. Analysis of the cox1 barcode sequence of C. fragaefolii from California found exact and nearly identical sequences to C. fragaefolii and Chaetosiphon thomasi Hille Ris Lambers, 1953, suggesting the two species are conspecific.

Soybean Aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae) Affects Soybean Spectral Reflectance.

Project description:Soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is the most economically important insect pest of soybean in the north central United States. Scouting-based integrated pest management (IPM) programs could become more efficient and more widely adopted by using plant spectral reflectance to estimate soybean aphid injury. Our objective was to determine whether plant spectral reflectance is affected by soybean aphid feeding. Field trials were conducted in 2013 and 2014 using caged plots. Early-, late-, and noninfested treatments were established to create a gradient of soybean aphid pressure. Whole-plant soybean aphid densities were recorded weekly. Measurements of plant spectral reflectance occurred on two sample dates per year. Simple linear regression models were used to test the effect of cumulative aphid-days (CAD) on plant spectral reflectance at 680?nm (RED) and 800?nm (NIR), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and relative chlorophyll content. Data indicated that CAD had no effect on canopy-level RED reflectance, but CAD decreased canopy-level NIR reflectance and NDVI. Canopy- and leaf-level measurements typically indicated similar plant spectral response to increasing CAD. CAD generally had no effect on relative chlorophyll content. The present study provides the first documentation that remote sensing holds potential for detecting changes in plant spectral reflectance induced by soybean aphid. The use of plant spectral reflectance in soybean aphid management may assist future IPM programs to reduce sampling costs and prevent prophylactic insecticide sprays.

Phylogenetic relationship and characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the black citrus aphid, Aphis aurantii (Hemiptera: Aphididae).

Project description:The black citrus aphid Aphis aurantii is a major pest of citrus and tea plants. In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of A. aurantii. The mitogenome was 15,469 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and a non-coding control region. Gene order of A. aurantii was highly conserved and identical to most other previously sequenced Aphididae. Initiation codons ATT, ATA, and ATG were identified in eight, three, and two PCGs, respectively, while stop codon TAA was found in 11 genes except for 2 genes (cox1 and nad4) which use incomplete stop codon T-. Phylogenetic analysis showed the topology (Pemphigidae + (Hormaphididae + (Greenideidae + Aphididae))) within Aphidoidea, and A. aurantii was more closely related to Aphis craccivora than to Aphis gossypii.

Comparative analysis of mitochondrial genomes of five aphid species (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and phylogenetic implications.

Project description:Insect mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are of great interest in exploring molecular evolution, phylogenetics and population genetics. Only two mitogenomes have been previously released in the insect group Aphididae, which consists of about 5,000 known species including some agricultural, forestry and horticultural pests. Here we report the complete 16,317 bp mitogenome of Cavariella salicicola and two nearly complete mitogenomes of Aphis glycines and Pterocomma pilosum. We also present a first comparative analysis of mitochondrial genomes of aphids. Results showed that aphid mitogenomes share conserved genomic organization, nucleotide and amino acid composition, and codon usage features. All 37 genes usually present in animal mitogenomes were sequenced and annotated. The analysis of gene evolutionary rate revealed the lowest and highest rates for COI and ATP8, respectively. A unique repeat region exclusively in aphid mitogenomes, which included variable numbers of tandem repeats in a lineage-specific manner, was highlighted for the first time. This region may have a function as another origin of replication. Phylogenetic reconstructions based on protein-coding genes and the stem-loop structures of control regions confirmed a sister relationship between Cavariella and pterocommatines. Current evidence suggest that pterocommatines could be formally transferred into Macrosiphini. Our paper also offers methodological instructions for obtaining other Aphididae mitochondrial genomes.

The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Mindarus keteleerifoliae (Insecta: Hemiptera: Aphididae) and Comparison with Other Aphididae Insects.

Project description:The mitogenome of Mindarus keteleerifoliae Zhang (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is a 15,199 bp circular molecule. The gene order and orientation of M. keteleerifoliae is similarly arranged to that of the ancestral insect of other aphid mitogenomes, and, a tRNA isomerism event maybe identified in the mitogenome of M. keteleerifoliae. The tRNA-Trp gene is coded in the J-strand and the same sequence in the N-strand codes for the tRNA-Ser gene. A similar phenomenon was also found in the mitogenome of Eriosoma lanigerum. However, whether tRNA isomers in aphids exist requires further study. Phylogenetic analyses, using all available protein-coding genes, support Mindarinae as the basal position of Aphididae. Two tribes of Aphidinae were recovered with high statistical significance. Characteristics of the M. keteleerifoliae mitogenome revealed distinct mitogenome structures and provided abundant phylogenetic signals, thus advancing our understanding of insect mitogenomic architecture and evolution. But, because only eight complete aphid mitogenomes, including M. keteleerifoliae, were published, future studies with larger taxon sampling sizes are necessary.
